Ross Sterling Turner (1847-1915), "The Shoals"
One of our favorite unsung artists, Ross Sterling Turner (1847-1915) created this lovely painting of the Isles of Shoals in August of 1887. The painting depicts Appeldore Island with the coast of York Maine on the horizon, the summit of Mount Agamenticus is viewable in the distance. During the 1880s Turner summered at the Shoals painting with his friend Childe Hassam.
Turner's work is represented in many public and private collections including the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Public Library, Fogg Museum at Harvard University, National Museum of American Art, Worcester Museum of Art, Peabody Museum of Salem, and Denver Art Museum. In recent years, Turner's work has been well represented in several major traveling museums exhibitions including "The Bostonians: Painters of an Elegant Age, 1870-1930" and "Awash in Color; Homer, Sargent and the Great American Watercolor."
